My players are so fierce.

Chapter 1357 1355. I told you that your clan must have been cursed by some dirty thing!
The sudden arrival of darkness portends something ominous.

When Murphy finished his abstract threat and reversed the blood river, allowing a majestic blood-colored song to emerge across the night, this ominous feeling became even more disturbing.

Although the latter had not yet drawn his sword, Shani had already gripped the weapon tightly.

To be honest, she was relieved that it was Murphy instead of Lord Paying who came to her. Although she was confident in her ability to hide and escape, no Grand Duke could safely refute the Holy Spear Eternal Silence with the damn vampire special attack.

It's like when you, a stupid student, know that you have done something wrong and you are waiting in agony, only to see that the person who comes is not the police but your class teacher. Then you know that the situation can still be saved.

Although he couldn't avoid being severely beaten.

"Are you so idle? Shani, I noticed that after we joined forces to eradicate the Witch Cult, you went further and further on the road of fighting against the Midnight Orthodoxy."

Murphy was leaning on the Long Night Guard, and the blood-burning blade made him look even more gloomy and more and more like a high-ranking vampire lord who was not easy to mess with.

However, Murphy did not intend to use a big move right away. He seemed to want to adopt a gentler "talk therapy" offensive.

He stared at Shani. The Duke of Thorns in front of him looked the same as when she first met Murphy. Although he was wearing tight combat clothes and a mask covering his face, which was very wife-like, his iconic braids still hung in front of his chest, making people sigh that Murphy and Shani had worked together in the past.

And that period of collaboration was really very satisfying.

Shani is an excellent collaborator in every aspect. Unfortunately, the path chosen by this guy has some irreconcilable conflicts with the path Murphy is taking.

“I think that both the Lord and I have reminded you more than once that as the Grand Duke of Thorns, you should focus more on managing your own clan instead of being content with being a vassal of a secular kingdom.

We reminded you, we're not the only ones.

When you step into the midnight, you should understand that you are no longer Shani Romanov, but Shani Torreze! Unfortunately, you seem to be too deeply entangled in the past and can't extricate yourself? "

"You still have the nerve to say that to me, Murphy."

Xia Ni maintained the combat posture of an assassin, pressing her body slightly downward to make her center of gravity more stable, and her slender legs on the ground were also gathering strength to launch a deadly shadow dance attack.

However, regarding the question raised by Murphy, Xia Nicole did not think that the other party was qualified to say so.

Her sarcastic voice came from under the combat mask and said:

"As the governor of Transia, I see that the time you spend on Transia affairs is at least ten times more than the time you spend serving the Blood Eagle Clan. Didn't you say in person that 'the Blood Eagle Clan is just an ordinary one among the many races in Transia'?
From this point of view, what is the difference between you and me?
I think you are the only one who understands me, Murphy, in all the great nations. The existence of vampires is such that we are destined to be unable to exist independently from the mortal race. Lord Paying hopes that vampires can be independent, but he ignores this point.

We are like vines. If we want to go higher, we must wrap around the thick trunk. The more prosperous the trunk, the more the vine can grow.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with what I did.”

"Well, you and I are still different, especially when it comes to self-positioning, Shani."

Murphy shook his head and explained:
"Just as what I believe in the equality of vampires and other races may be slightly different from the blood race civilization model you know, to put it simply, the Lord and I want us, the Midnight Clan, to break away from the barriers of 'eternal sinners' and truly become individuals who can hold our heads high in the night.

Yet you are content to content yourself with the meagre scraps you can get under the wing of the mundane kingdom.

Ultimately, it's a question of perspective.

A deeper analysis is that you always fail to recognize your own position.

Let me repeat what I said before, when you step into midnight, it's time to say goodbye to the past.

I did much better than you in this regard. You see, after I became a vampire, I didn't go to great lengths to find my former small family, nor did I waste a single moment pursuing the past.

I only have the future in my eyes
Well, your offspring have all been captured. Tris and Adele's execution is still as high as ever."

With the praise of the Vampire Governor, the Night Guard, who had never unsheathed his sword, swung his blade under the river of blood amid the sparks of friction with the scabbard. The sharp blade pointed at Shani in front of him and he said:
"Don't try to contact your people using the secret method of thorns, Shani. Rose has blocked the flow of information around here. You are trapped! The Lord has entrusted your life to me and I will do whatever I want with you. The new regent of the Thorn Clan is on his way to your principality.

After tonight, your fate will be sealed.

You may not die, but the name 'Shani Torreze' will be killed by my own hands.

I advise you not to resist.

If you don't resist, you won't feel any pain!"

"buzz"

Shani's response was more direct. A powerful burning emotion hit Murphy's heart like a heavy punch, but Murphy swallowed it all and failed to stun the vampire governor for even a second. This made Shani's best sneak attack fail to control the target in the first step.

When she emerged from behind Murphy, she was greeted by the Long Night Guard's perfect cassock slash from bottom to top.

"boom"

Amid the dancing sparks, Shani, like a gymnastics queen, used the collision of weapons to leap backwards and nimbly led herself into the darkness, entering the most deadly night patrol state of the Thorn Night Walkers.

Murphy spread out his perception of up to 50 points, and he knew that Xia Ni had been injured in the previous attack.

After all, the Soul-Snatching Edge has its own defense and counterattack. When Murphy was resisting Shani's thorns, the power from the underworld had already penetrated into her body.

This is the Songhai Empire. There is no need to say much about the power of the Underworld here, and there is no need to say much about the consequences of challenging the Underworld here.

Xia Ni really found the warmest grave for herself.

"I don't even need to come in person, Shani."

Murphy narrowed his eyes, searching for the rhythm in the shadows. He flicked his wrist to make the blood flame of the Long Night Guard jump more violently, just like waving a blood-colored torch.

他 说:

“I only need to give an order to the Church of the Dead Moon, and every undead in this sea of ​​sand will respectfully become my executioner, but I still came here in person.

In addition to giving you the respect that is worthy of the end of the blood clan grand duke, I also hope that you will curb your stubborn character for the sake of our past pleasant cooperation, so as to prevent this matter from really reaching an irreversible desperate situation. "

No one responded to him.

This little trick wouldn't fool even the lowest of the Thorn rookies, and Shani was even less likely to give an answer that would reveal her position, but Murphy also had a way.

He took a step forward, and when his footsteps touched the ground, he was also shrouded in shadows. Through the simulation of the Blood Spirit, he also entered the night patrol state of the Thorn Clan. The two stalkers began to try to find each other, but it was obvious that the simulated power was no match for Shani's well-honed assassin skills.

A few seconds later, Murphy took the initiative to emerge from his hidden form and launched a wave of "tactical seduction", and the six points of jumping blood light when the fish was hooked also enveloped him at this moment, and the assassin's supreme blow was about to end his life at this moment.

A row of debuffs suddenly appeared on the administrator system's panel, representing Shani's cold determination.

The closed blood wings were broken, preventing Murphy from reaching high altitudes temporarily, but the remaining three attacks were blocked. The last attack aimed at Murphy's back seemed to be a sure thing, but it was thwarted by the buzzing piercing of the awakened magic sword.

Murphy has two swords, so it's not easy to break his moves.

Xia Ni was unwilling to surrender. She didn't think she had done anything wrong, nor did she feel that she needed to be punished.

Unfortunately, the Mark of Sin, which brings together the power of the Blood Alliance, doesn't think so.

At the moment when the two passed each other, the sin mark simulated by the blood spirit fell on Shani. With this thing, Shani's difficult stealth was broken, but it was rude not to return the favor. The extraordinary golden rule of the Duke of Thorns, Ghost Haunting, also fell on Murphy. His "shadow" betrayed him.

A sinister ghost formed in the distortion and began to fatally stab Murphy in the back. Logically, Shani should have turned around and struck Murphy into eternal silence, but Shani was unable to free herself at this moment.

As the blood river turned upside down in the darkness of night, a figure that Shani was most reluctant to face stepped out of the blood river.

The visitor was wearing a blood-stained robe, and his fighting posture was exactly the same as Shani's, even the thorn armor on his body was exactly the same. The only difference was that the latter did not have the wife-style braids, but only a veil covering her face.

She moved her fingers so that the spikes of the combat fist blade popped out from her ten fingers, and walked towards Shani with graceful steps. The Duke of Thorn retreated and tried to regain his combat form, but was forced back seven times in a row in the flashing blood shadow.

"I have been dead for many years, Shani. Unfortunately, your progress is not as outstanding as I thought. Perhaps it is because I have been too indulgent in your teachings, or perhaps it is because you resist my path and therefore resist everything related to me."

The previous Grand Duke of Thorns, "Blood Clothes" Sophie, who was summoned by Murphy from the Blood River, stood in the night with a disappointed look. She looked at her bloodline and successor, and said to Shani, who was suffering from the dual troubles of the power of the underworld and the brand of sin, with a complicated emotion:
"You attacked me, you killed me, you stood indifferently outside the flames as I called out in despair, you watched me step into eternal silence and then inherited everything from me.

The dynasty of my lover was also overthrown by you and your relatives, and you once swore that you would not be the next me.

But look at you, Shani!
I don't see an heir who can break the curse of the nightthorn, I only see a martyr who is running wildly on my path.

You indeed did not become me. You have gone further than me, fallen deeper, and been tortured more miserably by the curse.

Ugh.

The Grand Duke of the Thorn Clan never dies of old age. It is our destiny to die abandoned and betrayed! Perhaps from the moment Ms. Oksana died at the hands of her lover, this curse has been passed down in our blood.

Tonight, you will follow in our footsteps."

"You're already dead! You're not her at all! Stop pretending."

Shani scolded:

"It's just a phantom from the past, don't mess with my mind!"

"Well, honey, you're already yelling."

Blood-Clothed Sophie said with a compassionate tone:

"Did I teach you not to get so excited in battle, especially when facing the Thorn Assassin?"

"boom"

The burning emotions of the Grand Duke at the beginning exploded in Shani's heart like thunder. The ignited emotions burned like a raging fire, leaving a flaw in Shani's defense. Then, in the bloody storm that was like a wheel of knives, Mrs. Shani was like being thrown into a drum washing machine full of blades, spinning wildly for more than ten rounds and then being thrown out.

As she tried her best to escape Sophie's storm of sharp blades, she had at least thirty wounds all over her body, and she looked like she had been fished out of a river of blood.

Beside her was Murphy, who was fighting against his rebellious shadow. Murphy's silver power contained the blood-controlling secret technique of scarlet energy. Therefore, as Shani screamed, one-fifth of her blood was extracted from various wounds by the vicious Murphy, and then transformed into a ball of blood spirit to strengthen herself into an explosive state.

With the exquisite display of the Death Blade swordsmanship, the ghost that Shani had lured into rebellion was also defeated by Murphy.

The shadow quickly reassembled after being shattered, which meant that this strange state of being haunted would not disappear so easily, but it finally gave Murphy some time to look back at the battlefield on Shani's side.

He saw Shani, who was as injured as a she-wolf, trying her best to break the illusion of Grand Duke Sophie, who was also looking back at him while gasping.

The moment their eyes met, Murphy smiled, then stretched out his left hand and snapped his fingers lightly.

The next second, as Shani looked on in despair, Grand Duke Sophie, who had just been killed by her, walked out of the river of blood again in an intact state, and this time it was a "double portion".

Appearing with Sophie was the first Grand Duke of Thorns, Ms. Oksana.

"Why don't you smile? Shani, do you think this 'farewell ceremony' isn't warm enough?"

Murphy said:
"Okay, I know that the phantoms of the past created by the reversed blood river are not as powerful as the original bodies. My blood lords can only reach two-thirds of the combat power of the original bodies at most, and it is difficult to completely simulate their extraordinary golden rules. Basically, apart from being able to be resurrected continuously, they have no advantages.

But the good news is that I still have the advantage of numbers that cannot be mentioned!

It is said that every Grand Duke of the Thorn Clan will die a violent death. This is your curse. So in this sad night of bidding farewell to the current Grand Duke, I should probably make your defeat more epic, so."

"Clap clap clap"

Murphy snapped his fingers three times and resurrected all the grand dukes of the Thorn clan from the first to the fifth generation.

The scene where a row of "women soldiers" in assassin costumes surrounded and hunted the embarrassed Xia Ni was so exciting that the despair in Xia Ni's eyes became even more obvious.

But that's not enough!
"The 'Crown of Thorns' on your head was shaped by the Lord in the Swamp Forbidden Zone. It is the power of the Creator and can only be used to fight against the Creator's enemies. Using it to plot against the honorable Alpha has caused great pain to this efficient machine, so I declare its miserable service to end here!"

Murphy waved his finger and threw a formatting command on Shani's crown of thorns. The thing immediately shut down with a beeping sound and overloaded its energy under the "overload command" of the Eden program.

"boom"

With a dull thud, the crown of thorns on Xia Ni's head exploded.

The flying debris scratched her forehead and caused blood to flow down her brow, making Xia Ni look like she was shedding tears of blood.

"It's obvious that you have no idea who you are challenging."

Murphy shook his head and said:
"You have no respect for midnight, Shani, and you desperately want to go back to your time as a Romanov, but you don't realize that you are just a victim of that time. Like an old woman with a grudge against the world, hating it for taking everything from you.

Midnight accepted you, but you showed no gratitude to Him.

Midnight is very angry, so she decided to punish you, Shani Torreze. You are no longer a member of the Midnight clan, and therefore, the power promised by the Thorn Clan will be taken back!"

"buzz"

Amid the strange cries of the Midnight Twins, the blood power of the Thorn Clan in Shani was sealed, making her even more desperate and weak.

At this moment, Murphy's shattered blood wings have also recovered.

He flapped his wings and flew into the sky. In the background where a river of blood ran through the sky, even dyeing the blood light scarlet, Murphy raised his left hand and let the five Dukes of Thorns enter combat mode. He looked at Shani below, who was abandoned by the darkness and was extremely desolate.

他 说:

"When I appeared, the relief in your eyes meant that you thought my arrival was much more merciful than the Lord's. You thought it was a gift from fate, a symbol that you might still be able to resist. Unfortunately,
You guessed wrong!

In every midnight from now on, the Millennium Lord, who was once regarded as a symbol of punishment, will be given the meaning of 'mercy' again, and the symbol that is enough to make all vampires tremble with fear will be inherited by me.

The call for all vampires to return to orthodoxy in this era is not a request, it is an order!

If you disobey orders, the Night King will come from the nightmare and punish you severely.

Shani, kneel down!
This is your last chance. "
